After I found my phone unbootable (RR 5.8.1 on OnePlus 3T), I wiped cache and dalvik and reinstalled RR (and gapps for good measure, since I wasn't sure if it was necessary).

Now my phone boots fine, but my pin no longer works! (It still works to decrypt the phone at the beginning of boot, but when I enter it at the lock screen after booting is complete it says it's wrong. I'm sure it's the right pin - I've only ever had one, and it worked fine yesterday.)

Any guesses as to what could cause this?

Mayank Agarwal: The data partition needs to be wiped, not the Internal Storage.

As far as I know, it's been mentioned that on OP3T, before taking nandroid backups, you should disable lockscreen security since there's some issue related to it with TWRP. Your case is similar to the situation above. You have data intact but a fresh flash of ROM.

After installing SuperSU and LiveBoot from the play store, I can no longer boot RR 5.8.1 on my OnePlus 3T. It just displays the boot logo indefinitely.

I can't logcat either - when I boot into recovery and connect with adb I get "logcat read failure."

Any guesses as to what might be going on, or pointers as to where to look next to troubleshoot?

(Others are running SuperSU on RR with no issues, right? LiveBoot, which is by the creator of SuperSU, seemed harmless enough so I foolishly installed it at the same time - now I don't know which caused the problem.)

About 90% of the time I try to ask a question at the forum, I'm first told to answer the following security question first to prove I'm not a bot: "Who develops RR?" Um... after reading the RR website and github, the only answer I can find is "The RR team." Which isn't accepted.

A few times I was instead asked something like "What brand of phone does RR run on?" It runs on a lot of brands of phones... I tried a few but couldn't guess what it was looking for.

After reloading a couple dozen times I got it to ask "What is google's phone OS called," which was answerable. But I don't want to have to just reload dozens of times every time I want to post...

Should I just ask questions here instead? Has this mostly replaced that forum? If the forum is better, what are the security question answers?

Daze One: Varun date I believe is the dev if this ROM

Justen Jaegle: 

Josh Hanson: And I figured out that the answer to the "what brand of phone?" question is Samsung... On closer inspection, I get the impression that the forum hasn't actually been maintained in a while, and isn't as active as it appeared at first. There's also no forum section for any Nougat-based version of RR, so people are posting questions in the Marshmallow section. I'll try re-posting over here...

When I click a folder, the zooming animation as it opens is very pretty, but it's also very slow. Is there any way to speed up the folder-opening animation? I don't want to turn off the animation entirely, just make it a little snappier.

Chris Chastain: On mine, it's under Developer Options, so you may have to enable that for your device.Change animation duration to like .5x

Josh Hanson: +Chris Chastain I tried setting all the developer animation settings to off, but it doesn't affect the animations in Lightning (like the folder opening animation, or the desktop zoom animation) at all.

Anyway, I'm perfectly happy with the speed of the system animations, I wouldn't want to change that. Lightning's animations all feel like slow motion in comparison.

Other launchers let users change this, and lightning is usually far more customizable than other launchers... Ideally we'd be able to change this per-folder, so that (for example) a sidebar folder could animate at a different speed than a normal folder! So I guess, consider this a feature request! :)

Chris Chastain: Well damn. I thought the system animation speed controlled it.Oh well...

Just discovered Lightning and I'm loving its flexibility! I'd love to be able to do some of the things I'm used to in other launchers, though...

One of my favorite features in both Nova and AL3 is the ability to set most of my folders so that tapping on the folder opens an app (the first app in the folder), but swiping up on the folder opens the folder itself. When I've used those launchers, most of my icons worked this way - so for example, clicking on my Map icon would open Google Maps, but swiping on it would show me all my mapping and navigation apps.

Is there any way I can make this the default behavior for folders in LL? Here's my current process, manually for each folder:1. Edit folder properties2. Set "tap" to "Launch an app"3. Select the app from the (long) list of all my apps.4. Set "Swipe up" to "Launch the item"

This gives me the behavior I want, but it's a lot of work per-folder. After doing this, each folder still looks like a folder - other launchers set the folder icon to match the icon of the first app. If I want to do that here, it gets even more complicated:

And if I'm not using an icon pack, and just want to use the app's default icon, it's even harder - I'm honestly not sure how to do that at all.

Any way to simplify the above process?

Josh Hanson: Except that would copy which app is launched! Every folder should open a different app, and selecting that manually is a significant fraction of the effort. It'd be nice if one of the available actions was "Open first item in folder"...

D “Punkt” D-Punkt: I tried some things but I didn't find a faster solution. That's LL - many great and tricky functions but less automatisms in customizing. Never the less I love it. It's like a multi-dimension-puzzle. You can't stop trying something new. So each project is open ended :o)

TrianguloY: You should use scripts (more advanced, but they allow for automation)

I'd like to use autoshare to trigger when I share a contact, then use autocontact to extract info from that shared contact. But autoshare provides a uri for the contact's vcard file instead of for the contact itself, and autocontact doesn't know what to do with it. Is there a way to use these together?

Is there any way to do something like the "Pick Contact" intent, but instead of showing all the contacts on my phone, it only shows the contacts in a particular group? (Or, failing that, only contacts matching some search, or only contacts matching any set of criteria at all?)

João Dias (joaomgcd): Not right now no. It's in plans to update AutoContacts to allow for that though.

Brandon Horwath: You can make your own contacts list through Tasker by creating a text file read into an array with the relevant data.

An odd bug with Google reminders... I created a reminder by speaking "remind me in half an hour to move the car." Created perfectly, no problems. Half an hour later, nothing happens. More time passes, then I go check Google Now and see this. As the screenshot shows, as of 1:02 PM I have an "upcoming" reminder at 12:54 PM.
